"We're In Trouble": Alan Greenspan

consider this a prolongation of my thread “is competition ethical?” at viewtopic.php?f=1&t=189596

it is because most think it is that global ponzi was made possible. Seeking profits is the cause of artificial scarcity.

Compete and die? or cooperate and thrive?

Yeah, you know shit is going to go down when an ex Federal Chairman is coming out with abysmal catastrophic reflections on the United States and global economy, however all the idiots, shills, or fools will tell you the opposite that everything is rosy or awesome…

This farce when it detonates will be absolutely fucking epic!

Cooperation is great. Everybody should do what I tell them.

Well, at least you’re being honest and straight forward about it.

LOL… anything that is not fully benevolent (coercion free) is doomed… but sure competition is now showing its boundaries too, the majority thought they were free and will eventually wake up penniless of the land their fathers conquered. what was your point again?

yeah unprecedentedly epic, I concur. Dont know why so many have a problem understanding “inflation”. I was explained it only once and right after started pacing back and forth thinking of the crime against humanity that is inflation/deflation.

Most people don’t want to know everything that has to do with reality especially the really nasty ugly stuff.

Everybody so desperately wants to believe everything is going to be fine secluded in their fantasy worlds.

Fuck em I say.

blind faith in money managers is going to cost dearly, boom and bust cycles have just become more acute over the centuries. How does a global bankruptcy look like?

Event horizon getting closer

Sheep will get slaughtered and culled. I feel no pity for them.

Global bankruptcy will come in the form of world war and civil wars followed by total chaotic anarchy across the planet.

As I’ve said before on numerous occasions, welcome to the global dark age.

Wait, just to be clear: are we talking about the same Alan Greenspan that, as Chairman of the Fed, insisted everything in the economy was great right up to the point were the great recession started?

My point is that cooperation on a grand scale is always coercive. Always. All this ‘we all just need to get along’ shit is just a fantasy in which people imagine that everybody who disagrees with them falls in line or ceases to exist.

There’s millions (billions) of people that don’t want what you want. What are they going to cooperate with you about?

in a fully decentralized system cooperation should not run into any major obstacles. It is centralization that is the ultimate coercive framework… centralization is the prime cause. The wrong premise. Everybody would agree that the “one size fit all” in clothing doesnt work, so how can one even think that “one size fit all government or collectivism” would ???

the maestro, right. He will be remembered as the engineer of the world collapse.

Human beings know nothing about cooperation unless it means one group of people working together to enslave and take everything away from another group.

There’s no sweeter myth than that of social cooperation.

they know nothing about cooperation because they are unaware that ignorance kills. Instead they rely on whatever social, political and banking structures to do the thinking for them and end up enslaving them. … Education Inc

Show me a single society in the history of the human species that used social cooperation without violence, oppression, or coercion.

Cooperation about what? Again, there are millions or billions of people that don’t want the same things out of life as you. What are you going to cooperate with them on?

Yes, and that is how you get people to cooperate.

Ah yes, nothing says cooperation like enforced cooperation with the threat of violence by a government organization. :laughing:

I am so used to hearing this question, there are no example because masses believe blindly in the herd mentality and the sacrificial lamb theory. That poverty for example is unavoidable and natural. For humans it is NOT… poverty is manufactured. Our electronic market (cell phones, computers, etc) has cost the lives of 5 million africans so far, the result of the coltan war, coltan is a mineral needed to build those devices. How many know this. know that there is blood on their cell phones in the so-called rich west?

Just an example

decentralization is the framework of anarchy/voluntarism. surprised you missed the link. However, I’d rather talk of as how to completely reform the educational system because as long as it is not done, we’ll continue talking in circle. But right now people are obviously not ready for decentralization and volunteering for their own social structures instead of having big bucks politicians. Indeed, they/we just get what they/we deserve. Afraid of freedom, then be crushed by tyranny.
